- Does the Milwaukee 2841-20 come with a battery?
- No. It is a bare tool, so you need a separate M18 battery and charger. Any M18 pack works, and a compact pack keeps the weight down.
- What nail sizes does it take?
- It drives 18-gauge brads from 1-1/4 to 2-1/2 inches. The 110-nail magazine takes standard 18-gauge brad strips.
- Is it a replacement for a pneumatic brad nailer?
- For most trim and finish work, yes. It sets nails consistently without a compressor or hose, though it is heavier and bulkier than a pneumatic gun.
- How does it compare with Milwaukee's 16-gauge nailer?
- This is an 18-gauge brad nailer for fine trim and small moldings. The 16-gauge model drives thicker, longer fasteners for heavier trim and framing-type work.
- Do I need to adjust it for different woods?
- Yes. Use the tool-free drive-power and depth controls to match hard and soft woods so nails sink flush without blowing through.
- Can it be used for overhead work?
- It can, but at about 6.5 lb with a battery it gets tiring overhead. A compact battery helps.
